Chapter 277 - Primordial Chaos Flame
Qingyi sat cross-legged, observing the lines that ran trough his body.
It was... strange.
He still had access to his four primary Qi's, sword, lightning, ice and fire, as well as his bloodline Qi.
But he simply couldn't activate his draconic eyes, or any other bloodline ability.
He closed his eyes. Meditated. pondered. Touched those laws and even used his different types of Qi to manipulate them, observing how they moved around him.
It was only after almost a day in that world that he finally realized what an idiot he had been.
In Ruxue's words, transcendents could try to advance quickly with some useless law, or spend years there to achieve a powerful law.
But he didn't want to spend years there. He wasn't willing to.
Fortunately, he had the system.
If the system store could send powerful techniques straight to his head, why couldn't it do the same with laws?
"System... what's the best type of law I can buy with my current balance?"
[Item: Primordial Chaos Flame Law.
Description: Contains the knowledge needed to master the Primordial Chaos Flame, created by the first chaos god in the ancient era. Requires spiritual roots with two extremely low affinity Qi's.
Grade: No Grade.
Price: 30,000,000]
"Primordial chaos flame... Qi's of extremely low affinity..." Qingyi's eyes lit up. "That's exactly what I need!"
Without hesitation, he clicked buy.
An intense headache exploded as a myriad of information flooded into his mind.
Qingyi didn't even blink at the pain. On the contrary, he was overcome with ecstasy.
Looking at his own hands, he called out fire in his right and ice in his left, the primordial laws around him shuddering.
His sword Qi and lightning Qi worked so well together because they had a high affinity, flowing perfectly and barely causing fluctuation.
Fire and ice, on the other hand, were complete opposites. The perfect ingredient for chaos.
With a grunt, Qingyi forced those Qi's against each other, forming a ball of fire and a ball of ice, trying to fuse them together.
It should be impossible. They should repel each other, each piece of Qi fighting to eliminate the Qi of opposing power.
But that's not what happened. Qingyi controlled each strand of Qi carefully, tangling them together, a strange order forming in the chaos.
When his palms met, the world around him changed completely.
An explosion took over everything as his mind was overwhelmed by a new understanding and he was pulled back into his body.
[You have mastered the Primordial Chaos Realm]
[Your cultivation has improved! Ninth stage of the Rebirth Realm → First stage of the Transcendence Realm]
Qingyi barely paid any attention to those notifications as he returned to his body, watching with delight the looks of shock and horror on everyone's faces.
Qingyi had just advanced to the realm of transcendence? Just like that?
"What? Cat got your tongues?" Qingyi laughed, looking up to the heavens.
"Quickly! Don't let him break the defensive array! It's still powerful enough to deal with him!" The transcendents acted together, strengthening the array even more, increasing the power of the Qi above Qingyi.
But they soon realized something.
Qingyi's target wasn't the defensive array.
His target was the very skies above them.
"That day, you chickened out!" Qingyi roared upwards. "But you can't ignore me any longer, can you? Come at me! I'll break you and advance to the immortal heavens!"
He felt the primordial laws around him collapse as he put all his power out, the space becoming unstable.
"You're crazy, brat! You haven't even reached the peak of the Transcendence Realm!" Yanxiao roared, but was soon silenced.
His feline face, wounded and overcome with pain, sank completely as he noticed the tremors in the skies.
Hundreds of bolts of lightning appeared on the horizon. The black clouds swirled like a whirlwind, gathering all the lightning in one place.
That was tribulation. But not just any tribulation.
These were the three heavenly tribulations, the ones that had to be crossed in order to ascend.
The heavens had truly accepted Qingyi's challenge.
Qingyi gripped the heaven-defying thunder sword tighter than ever, pointing it at the eye of the whirlwind.
In the next moment, the air changed, so hot that even Yanxiao had to close his eyes, his very soul trembling, his fire Qi bowing in submission.
If he had been able to look at Qingyi, he would have realized that the flame surrounding that sword was unlike anything he had ever seen in his life.
A gray fire. Too chaotic to be controlled by any mortal or immortal hand, trying to destroy everything around it, but carefully controlled by Qingyi, whose clothes were already crumbling to ash over his body, forcing him to call on his black scales for cover.
10:18
This time, not even the regenerative capacity of the three-bladed monarch's set held out.
With a soft sigh, Qingyi retracted his sword, preparing to charge towards the heavens while remembering that final attack from Mochen.
He wouldn't fight the three lightning of the three celestial tribulations.
He would break them with a single blow.
"Qingyi... this is dangerous. You don't understand the power of a celestial tribulation yet. You need to prepare better." Ruxue's voice sounded in his mind, much more worried than usual.
"Have confidence in your husband." He smiled, watching as the heavens finally stopped gathering power and the thunder calmed down for a brief moment.
"If one day I meet your creator, the creator of the heavens, I hope it's a hot woman! Then I'll be able to proudly brag that I stuck my cock in the tight pussy of the one who forged the heavens themselves! This is my ambition, keep it in your memory!"
Qingyi declared arrogantly and the heavens finally let the lightning strike.
The world around him was overtaken by incomparable destruction. The transcendents fell to the ground coughing up blood, their bodies destroyed by the shock of power, their souls shattered.
When the heavenly lightning arrived just ten meters away, Qingyi attacked.
The flame of chaos hit the heavenly power and spread through the lightning, using the flash of light and plasma as a staircase to the black clouds and the void beyond.
Qingyi gritted his teeth. His eyes bled and his muscles tore under the power of the heavens.
But he didn't yield, pushing out more and more power until he saw the resistance of the first thunder begin to give way, its rumble fading as the center of the swirl of black clouds opened up.
If those transcendents had still been alive to see it, they would have realized something frightening: Qingyi had torn a hole in the heavenly tribulation, a pillar of light tearing through the black clouds and falling towards him.
"Go now! It's closing!" Ruxue shouted in Qingyi's mind, who nodded, flying into the sky at a terrifying speed.
Taking one last look at the horizon, he spent the rest of his lust points, around three million, on talent enhancement pills.
Enough to improve someone's lineage and spiritual roots to mortal grade.
Before ascending, he put these pills in a small box that he had also bought in the system and threw them in the direction of the Ascending Dragon Sect.
Even though he was tens of thousands of kilometers away, Qingyi was confident of getting it right.
He still hadn't forgotten Jinhai's kindness to him and this would be his way of paying him back.
